More recently the Sun was threatened with a lawsuit for insulting Chirac, though this never materialized.
In the interests of corrected a misperception which I inadvertantly fell into the other day, is it actually true that the Sun was "threatened with" such a lawsuit? Or is it merely that observers (at the Guardian, for example) noted that such was a theoretical possibility?
